Insect Ponder for sitting Hens.

few days before the eggs are due to
hatch the hen and nest should be thoroughly
busted with insect powder, to destroy lice
that have probably fastened on the hen
while sitting. The instinct of maternity
Is so strong at this time that hen does not
take her usual precautions in keeping her.
self free from vermin. The result is that
SO soon as the chickens hatch the lice leave
the hen and fasten on them, killing many
and making all weakly. Insect powder is
better to destroy lice on sitting hens than
oil or grease, which would get on the eggs,
closing their pores, and thus destroying
chickens even before they are batched. 1t
is not best even that sitting hen should
be fat, and she will not be long after sit
ting. Considerable oil comes through her
skin, giving the eggs the shiny, smooth
look that indicates that they are bad.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
The FfnEing Of Beds.

The first duty of the up stairs servant
in the morning is to tidy up the rooms and
make the beds. Very few servants can
make bed properly, and still fewer will
allow themselves to be shown how to do it.
Bear in mind, to begin with, that unless a
bed is properly aired every day it certainly
will not be place of rest. A bed should
always be stripped daily, but unless you
are careful to overlook your servant this is
duty that is rarely attended to. The
proper course is pretty much as follows
The bolster and pillows should, after a
slight shake, be laid aside; the mattress,
freed of the bed clothes, should be raised
and allowed to stay in this arch until the
spring bed beneath is well aired. Then
turn it from head to foot, or side to side,
to equalize the wear and to prevent any
hard Jumps gathering. Next lay the under
sheet smoothly over it, tucking it in
tightly at the head, foot, and sides; shake
and toss the bolster well and see the
feathers are evenly distributed; lay it
across the head of the bed and lay on the
top sheet, tucking it in we'll at the foot
end, drawing up and creasing under the
bolster. Repeat this process with the
blankets and quilt; fold blanket and sheet
well in under the mattress, letting the
sides of the quilt hang loosely, or be
tucked in even with the woodwork OF the
bedstead, according to the style OF the
quilt. Lace ones are allowed to hang.
Shake the pillows as you did the bolster,
put them in place, and cover with the
shams, and when you have laid the elder
down quilt in its place your bed is made.

Hints to Fsc,tsekeeDers.

BREAD should not be exposed to the air.
ALL sailed provisions must be kept under
the brine.
A RICE pudding is good without eggs if
baked gently.
BLUEBERRY stains may be removed from
table linen by putting the part stained into
boiling water.
THE white of an egg, with a little water
and sugar, is good for children with an
irritable stomach.
BAR soap, when first bought, should be
cut in square pieces and put in dry place.
1t lasts better after shrinking.
For sumac ldogwoodl poisoning make a
strong solution of alum water and battle
the affected parts freely for few times
and it will effect cure.
WHEN the knives and forks are stained
with egg scour them with common table
salt. Medicine stains can be removed
from spoons in the same manner.
The French method of administering
castor oil to children is to pour the oil
into pan over moderate fire, break an
egg into it, and stir up. When it is done
flavor with a little salt or sugar or currant
ielly.

Courts of Arbitration.

Strong efforts will be made nexi
Winter to induce the Ohio Legisla-
ture to establish in every county
'scourts of Cancellation" like those
which have long worked success
fully in Denmark and Norway.
These Courts will not have coercive
authority, but will seek to settle in
a friendly way disputes between
individuals, and to harmonic differ
ences between employer and en-
ployes. In Denmark one party can
compel the other to appear before
the Court, bat if the case cannot be
settled amicably, recourse must be
had to the ordinary Courts. No
witnesses are usually summoned.
The parties themselves are exam
ined by the Judge, who explains
the law and suggests such legal and
moral points as may be pertinent
As a result Of this system in Den
mark, it is said that five-sixths OF
all controversies are settled outside
OF the ordinary Courts.

Gypsum Mines.

Gypsum has come to the front.
The gypsum deposits of the islands
are fast becoming exhausted, and
men of capital are now ready to buy
mines in Nevada, if accessible to
the railroad. Already a mine, on
the line OF the Central Pacific, has
been sold for $3.50 900, and parties
are now negotiating for the mine
situated about mile and a hall
West from the Mound House, this
county. Gypsum is extensiy ely
used in the arts, and also in the
place of concrete, in the construct
ion of sidewalks and roadways,
an! for fertilizipg purposes. As a
fertilizer OF alkali land it has no SUI
perior. Prospectors should give
this matter special attention. A
gypsum mine, conveniently located
is of more value to a poor man
than silver mine in a remote dis
trict. So says the Lyon County
Times.

Something Wrong.

The news comes from Boston
that an Eastern metal firm has Of
fered to take the entire production
of all copper mines in this country,
except the Calmut & Hecla, and
that is shut down in consequence OF
the recent fire, for the ensuing year
at 1913 cents per pound. The SYM
dictate intends buying every ton of
copper until the market price reach
es $50 per ton.
The foregoing item has been GO
ing the rounds of the press for some
time. If anyone will glance over
the figures he will discover some
thing wrong; 151a cents a pound
would make it 1910, already.

JACK ASHORE.
A Tahoe Tar Foul of the
Reefs.


esterday afternoon Sailor Jack,
OF the good ship Lille Van, Lake
Tahoe, came in on the quarter deck
of the Glenbrook stage.
Jack, when he struck dry land
began to splice the main brace and
unravel his rattlins in several snug
harbors, and by noon was nearly
four sheets in the wind and the rest
Tapping. He had plenty of shot IN
the locker when he came ashore,
but was soon without a bean, and
in that condition scared up a dilap-
idated fiddle and began to play
about town to raise the wind. His
music shocked the cultivated ear of
Carson, and he was sent back to
his ship.
During his wanderings he fell
foul OF a piratical craft on Main
street, and returned from the con-
test with cut under his eve.
On the blue waters ofTahoe, Jack
is gay mariner, but he is out of
his depth when he gets too much
in port. or more properly speaking,
when he gets too much port into
him.

Important Case.

The case of the Reno Reduction
Works vs. c. G. Stevenson, ct al,
now on trial at Reno, is about as
follows The Reduction Works Com
pany constructed dam across the
river near their works and appro
priated water for running the same,
and the State through its accredited
officers made a location below the
dam of 1000 inches of water for the
use of the Insane Asylum, and com
meaced building their flume, when
the company objected to the build
ing of the same over any part of
their premises. 1t then became
necessary to have the right of way
condemned and in pursuance of the
law therefor, Hon. Alfred Helm, OF
Carson, was appointed OF. the part
of the State, but the company re-
fused to appoint any one unless one
of their own company.
. Under these circumstances two
members of the State Board for the
care of the Insane and Mr.. Helm
went to Reno, aud when there some
members of the company proposed
in writing, to build dam nearer
the works, the State to bear part of
the expenses, which terms were ac-
cepted by the Board and the At
torney-General instructed to draw
up a contract in accordance with
their written agreement. This they
delayed signing until the appropria-
ton of water on the part of the
State expired, when they fatty re-
fused to fulfill their agreement.
Then the State purchased right
of way on the south side of the
river and proceeded to build ditch
and fiume to connect with the dam
at Scott's Island, for The purpose of
| taking the waste water therefrom,
and the company thereupon OBJ
tanned temporary injunction to re-
strain the State from taking the sur
plus water at that point.
The attorneys for the plaintiff are
r. S. Mesick and Judge Boardman.
For defendants, Attorney General
Alexander, Robt. Lindsay and Judge
Wells. This case is attracting much
attention in Reno and surrounding
country. Billy Thompson and H.
III. Beck are the parties interested
as against the State, claiming as they
do the right to control the water of
the Truckee river. The evidence SO
far is altogether in favor of the State
institution, and all admit that the
Insane Asylum must have its State
rights.
